- High School
- Continuation School
- SCOE Juvenile Court/Community School

- Career Technical Education classes
- Fairfield-Suisun Adult School
- Solano Community College
- SOAR/STC (Students Achieving Results/School-to-Career)
- Or who are job ready
- Or are foster youth in need of employment services
The TPP staff also supply the auxiliary services necessary for the students/DOR clients to reach their employment goal. Staff works together from referral, through intake, eligibility and planning to ensure services necessary for success. The DOR and SCOE Cooperative Agreement establishes a collaborative service relationship designed to provide the student/DOR client greater access to specialized services intended to meet the unique needs of the shared DOR/Education Agency disabled population. All services, funded directly or through certified expenditures, provided through this agreement shall be provided only for TPP student/DOR clients.
